Study! Study! Study!

[bikdel]

Well thanx for all that @ T159 what level do you study in right now?

Maths .. Uhh too tough for me Tell me wether to do just the course book or Guide books as well..

Physics .. Never know anything about it Sounds like Greek to me ..

Chemistry .. Easy but just too much to learn, nevertheless can manage !!

Biology .. Too easy, never study anything, just read the book once and just do it!!

English .. Im a damn heavy scorer Never study the book NEVER.. just read it once when i bought it cuz i love the stories, n thats it...

any ideas how to improve on maths and physics?
i failed in maths in second terminals.. pooh

for maths - TMH board exam series (its a thick book and all problems are solved in gradual gradation manner, its way better then R D sharma)

Physics - consider reading Resnik halliday or better version University Physics- young and freedman (these are costly but effective books, once u get the comcept u will complete the textbook in 2 days).

And remember to workout on numericals.

Am in last year of Engg Life is too busy now, i wish i could travel back to school

Getting marks in pre-board is easy and actual board is a different things, so dont take things easily unless u are well versed with subjects.

Biology .. Too easy, never study anything, just read the book once and just do it!!

Read any objective book and u will know how deep is Bio

A C Dutta - for botany (best book)
Stout and Green- cambridge university press - Zoology (nice book)

Text book of bio is nothing compared to the actual syllabus u hav to study for competitive exams.

i had the feeling that pre-boards are harder than boards, just for making students well versed, teachers tend to make it hard in my school
on the brighter side you get beter marks in boards

and thanks for all that.. will definitely go for halliday-resnick.. heard a lot but didnt care till date ...

My opinion :

You need a good teacher for biology and I mean real good.

Physics:H.C. Verma is good enough don't go for Resnick halliday instead go for university physics.

maths:I never had any idea about it.IMO try to grasp what is actually meant by all the theorems and all just don't mug up questions like an idiot(like I do).

 

[bikdel]

well im really bad at mugging up.. so organic chem gives a bit of problem...

Bio isnt a problem... maths and Physics are...I need a miracle to pass well in those subjects


anyways i wanted to go for halliday and resnick cuz i think no indian book meets the standard.. i already have Pradeep's Objective and Subjective volumes and am pissed off looking at it because nothing is PRIORITISED in it, read everything and get lost in the end..
the halliday books are more classified

you must be a devil!! ... or you must cheat

anyways no offenses

Nah didn't Cheat even Half a mark . Can proudly say that .

10th Was easy , n in ICSE u have like 3 days holiday before each exam , that gives you ample time to study if u really want to.

But i'm gonna study 3 months in 12th coz course is 10 times as much of 10th .

get Morrison Boyd, u will never ever cram organic reactions, but u hav to read it carefully.

My proficiency was
organic chemistry > physical chemistry > inorganic chemistry

I was able to derive any product from reactant within 2 mins. Btw organic chemistry is one of the most interesting one.

Dude i TOTALLY TOTALLY Hate Chemistry .

now i don't even have time to study the book you suggested .

guess i'll have to cram for my boards(that is if i decide to do that or else i'll just get passing marks in chem)

yeah its late to start with all those books.

But for competitive exams like IIT and other thought provoking ones u will need this book.

 

[bikdel]

@ T159

yeah its really late but nah! its never too late

anyways what are those TMH board exam series? TMH stands for??

and morrison n boyd is wayyyy bigger than my organic chemistry book

my proficiency is Physical Chemistry<Inorganic Chemistry<Organic Chemistry

but ironically im always hanging by a few marks in physics

@ Zeeshan Quireshi

Youve still got to give pre boards, isnt it? ar is it already over..? mine are after a month

thnk in advznce..............

Nah didn't Cheat even Half a mark . Can proudly say that .

.........

It's not possible to chaet in those exams..........coz u hv no time to waste......Har Second Imp hota hai!!!!!!!.............

 

[faraaz]

@Ron: Casio's fx-82 calculator to the rescue...I'm not too proud of this, but I cheated for almost 30 marks in my Physics exam...

 

[bikdel]

well we dont get calculators in exams
but then you are always bugged by those who never study ::angry:: though i am not much different

sometimes invigilators really don't do anything to the cheaters and you have to tackle them all by yourself... i feel it wierd to tell someone an answer, but i dont care if he/she sees it himself

@ ron ... where do you study?..i gave CBSE last year

its pretty much same for inter colleges here
